38: Every Coach Has to Learn to Lead
In this episode of Bad Boss Confessional, Beth Fahey sits down with Josh Hauser, certified EOS implementer, entrepreneur, and father of eight. Josh shares what happened when a rate crisis hit his growing insurance practice and exposed a gap he hadn't seen coming: he knew how to teach and coach, but he had never learned how to lead and manage.
The conversation explores what it looks like when a leader's default mode stops serving the people around them, why victim thinking spreads fast inside an organization, and what it actually takes to close the gap between knowing something and living it.
His lesson is one that cuts across business and life: the easy path creates complexity. The hard work is what makes things simple.
